Bleckley County Board of Education recognized the TYOT for each school in the district at the last board meeting. Mr. Jackie Bowen from State Bank presented each of them with a check and Mrs. Kim Wright, Chairman of the Board presented them with a plaque.

Mrs. Jones’s biology classes are experimenting. Here are some pictures of day one of their Transformation of E. Coli with Green Fluorescent Protein gene lab. They are forcing E.Coli bacteria to take on the pGFP gene (naturally found in jellyfish) so that they will then glow fluorescent green much like some jellyfish do. After the bacteria incubate overnight, hopefully we will have glowing green E.Coli bacteria!
